LANDING
As soon as the helper has the kite securely in their hands,
walk towards them until all flying lines are no longer under ten-
sion. This way the kite will flag out downwind of the helper.
Secure the kite as described in “Securing the Kite“.
Warning: Landing without helpers is
not recommended due to the special
construction of the VMG and can lead
to damage!
07 LANDING
07.01 Landing with an assistant
The easiest and safest way to land your kite is with the help
of an assistant. Signal a helper who knows how to land your kite,
that you want to land. The helper should be standing well upwind
of the kite.
Lower the kite towards the helper along the edge of the wind
window. Hold the kite slightly powered to avoid undercutting the
lower wing half.
The helper can now approach the kite and grab hold of the
leading edge of the kite.
Warning:
The helper should never grab any lines.
